To The People of New Zealand

I have been utterly shocked and saddened by the news of this most recent earthquake in the city of Christchurch, New Zealand.

I extend not only my own personal sympathies and condolences, but those of the entire Sovereign Barony of Nonsuch, to the families and friends of those who have been killed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My thoughts and prayers also go out to the emergency services and volunteer personnel who are assisting in the search and rescue efforts. May your efforts be rewarded with many rescued survivors and very few fatalities.

In the spirit of compassion and international peace and brotherhood, a donation shall be made to the New Zealand Red Cross.

His Serene & Sovereign Lordship,

Wesley,

Baron of Nonsuch

To the Family of J. Paul Getty III

The Sovereign Barony of Nonsuch extends to the family of J. Paul Getty III its sincerest condolences on his death.

Although I never met Mr. Getty personally, I still recall with great fondness the time I spent at the Getty Villa on a trip to Los Angeles , California in October of 2010.

Mr. Getty had a troubled life and we can now but hope he is at peace.

His Serene & Sovereign Lordship,

Wesley,

Baron of Nonsuch.
